Lyrics I Am My Own Name - Peter Murphy, Youth, Eddie Banda

I Am My Own Name

I am my own name
I am my own
I am my own name
My own name
My own name
My own name
I am
No hydric sea of white and drawn
No shaded shadow, no monkey shown
No jaded shark star or blackened fall
No even cynic, no lover’s toll
A seeking searcher, a shifting shape
A spirit lifter while the sea does wait
I bought the maze onto kings
Where death does sit I call out the ring
Moonlight shiver in the magical dance
Swing the lights out, the seeker
I am my own
I am my own
I am my own name
My own name
My own name
My own name
I am
I talk to the mice upon the kings
Where the dead does sit, call out the ring
Moonlight shiver in the magical dance
Swing the lanterns of the secret mess
No pixies, no white and drawn
No shaded shadow, no monkey shown
No jaded shark star or blackened fall
Seeking judgment, shifting shame
I am my own
I am my own
I am my own
I am my own
I am my own
I am my own
I am my own name
I am my own
